Snapdragon 615 sits at the core of this one, an octa-core setup split between 1.7GHz and 1.0GHz clusters, paired with Adreno 405 graphics and 2GB of RAM. That's a mid-range combination rather than a flagship one, and 16GB of onboard storage is on the tight side, though the microSD slot stretches that up to 128GB. The 5.5-inch touchscreen runs Android 5.0.1 Lollipop with HTC's Sense UI layered on top.

Camera-wise, you get a 13MP rear shooter with autofocus and LED flash, capable of 1080p video, plus a 4MP front camera built for selfies and video calls. HTC Desire 826 price in Malaysia starts from RM990, positioning it as a budget-conscious pick rather than a spec-chasing one.

Battery capacity is 2600mAh and non-removable, modest by today's standards but workable for the hardware it's paired with. Stereo speakers with built-in amplifiers are a nice touch for a phone at this price, and connectivity covers LTE, dual-band Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 4.0 with apt-X support.
